Just a heads’ up for those of you that are fans of my art. It is with deep regret that I am announcing that our Cafepress shop, the first store we opened way back in 2004 will be closing for good as of 9/27/09. I will begin removing designs on September 24th to be sure all are removed before the shop closes so that the company can no longer use my designs without my consent (there are many reports of artists actually being locked out of their own work!).

Currently all NEW designs (those created and updated since May of this year) are only available via our Zazzle shop (and a few select designs at Printfection) but many of the older designs are available currently on items that Zazzle doesn’t offer (signs, flags, bibs, tile boxes, etc) at Cafepress. So….if you’re interested in purchasing any of these items before the shop closes, NOW would be the time to do so.

If you’re interesting in the reason behind this move, please read these related posts:

We will continue to donate 10% of proceeds to the rescues we support from the proceeds (small as they are) generated by our Zazzle shop. The Printfection store has yet to see a payday

Thanks again for all your support throughout the years. It is my sincere hope that you’ll follow us (my husband Roger, Buster, Buddy, Luna and myself) to Zazzle!
